If you follow the link to the K Chronicles and get dumped to Salon's front page, click on "Comics", then find the Mar 26, 2008 episode of K Chronicles. You might have to sit through an ad.
Yeah, I was saying that to a friend in Connecticut... our age-old national angst made manifest with millions of dollars of taxpayer's money. :) Well, it ought to be worth a hoot. And it's got both Paul Gross and Tom Skerritt in it, and I'd cross the street to see either of them, so that's a good start. Turns out Tom Skerritt's dad is from Alberta, so he counts as one of us anyway. Well, you should know the drill by now. If you were born in Timbuktu but delivered two lines of dialog in a movie shot in Moosejaw, you count as a "Canadian actor". :)

Hopefully I can see it on DVD eventually.
In truth, you have to work hard not to be counted as a Canadian for cultural purposes. It isn't easy.

Have you seen Idealistic Pragmatist's "What do you call...?" It's excellent. I'll see if I can find it for you.

The first Canadian president apparently comes tomorrow night on the CBC...
Oh good, that oughta help with the paranoia. :)
